North Haven, CT Office

The firm serves a small number of mostly individual and high‑net‑worth clients, as well as some corporate and charitable clients, and provides financial planning, portfolio management, and project-based consulting. The adviser typically links investment management to a written financial plan and generally requires ongoing planning in conjunction with portfolio services.

Investment decisions are made through customized investment policy statements and primarily employ individual equities, bonds, mutual funds and ETFs using both fundamental and technical analysis. Client accounts are managed on a non‑discretionary basis—clients must approve trades, which can delay execution and limit participation in block trading—while the firm may also retain separate account managers who are granted discretionary trading authority and are monitored by the firm.

Distinctive features include an affiliation with another registered investment adviser to provide continuity of client service if the firm’s primary advisor is unavailable, and the principal’s insurance license allowing the firm to implement insurance solutions for clients while disclosing related compensation and avoiding duplicate fees on the same assets. The firm also offers no‑cost educational workshops for individuals and business owners, a service not commonly offered by peers in this category.
